Chionodoxa Luciliae
M5227
Description
Loose spikes of delicate, sky-blue flowers bloom in profusion on Chionodoxa ‘Luciliae’ during February and March. This intricate beauty is the perfect choice to brighten a dull corner of the garden – ideal for rockeries, alpine borders and for planting beneath large shrubs or trees in dappled shade. Chionodoxas are also wonderful for growing in containers as a pretty, low-growing carpet, from which later flowering bulbs such as Tulips can emerge.
Bulbs will naturalise well in fertile, well-drained soil, returning year after year with their eye-catching show of dazzling blue.
Chionodoxa ‘Luciliae’ has been granted a prestigious Award of Garden Merit by the RHS for its exceptional garden qualities.
Care Guide
This low-growing, early spring bulb is a popular choice for naturalising in the rockery or grassland.
Plant 5 cm deep, 5 cm apart. Water well in the growing season.
